Default Opinion on xB from tC owners...

OK tC enthusiasts. Just wondering who else out there finds the xB to be as hideous as I do. I think the tC is pretty much the best looking car in its price range on the market right now, and I'm buying one within the next month. I think the xA looks pretty nice too. My girlfriend bought one last month.

But I think the xB is hideous. Really hideous. No offense to any of you xB owners.

Just wondering if I'm on my own here, or if there are other tC owners who feel the same way.

it's ok, but you would have to be the type of person that wants to be different.

Hehe it's a funny looking car. I don't like it a lot, but some people do. And yeah the tC is the best looking car in its price range.

Man, you guys are brutal! It's not that bad. I think it's cool little ride. I've seen some customized xBs that blow the doors of the tC.

If I had one I would get a white one. Put a fat as$ clown head on top of it, instead of car part stickers I'd put ice cream stickers on it, then put a loud megaphone on top and blare 'ice cream man' music.

Of couse it would be tinted and have saweet rims on it.

P.S. Can you find a better looking ride (brand new) in the same price range (under $15k) as a stock xB?

At first I didn't like the xB at all but it has really grown on me recently, especially the RS3.

I'd rather drive the xA. IMO looks much better than the xB. I guess I'm jus old fashioned and conservative.




but as you can see I like the tC of the three

i think its impossible for a xB to flip over, i think they would just fall on their side and slide or whatever. i do have to say that the honda element would get my pick if i they were both up for the best box award.

If the xb could pull a jetski I'd get one and lose the Blazer.

I would have to respect the xB, since I participated in a RALLY event with an xB with 18s and a lip kit. "Preeetty Crazy, if u know what I mean"

Search for "towing with an xb" I think.

modded xB's rock, stock.. they just kinda look plain.
I'd never choose one over my tC, but definatly give props to the guys to mod the crap out of them.

xB's look great with nice wheels and lightly modded. It's pretty much a subjective opinion when it comes to the styling of the car. There are people that think the tC looks like a fat jellybean and would rather have a xB. Personally, I like both because they are so different in what they are trying to project with their unique styling.

I really didn't like the xB at first, thought it was stupid looking. However, after buying my tC and going to a few shows, I became a little more familiar with the box. I like 'em now, and if I was buying another car it would deffinately be a toaster.

The xb grew on me...there's no way you could compare the tc and xb considering they are 2 totally different cars. I love the tc and the xb but the tc just fits me more. xB's are pimp.
